Will I get penalty points for an average speed of 107 in a 100 speed-limited zone with interval speed measurement?

An average speed of 107 in a 100 speed-limited zone with interval speed measurement will not result in penalty points. Highway speed measurement employs a set of detection equipment, typically installed at both ends, often near toll stations. Previous testing used a "point capture" method, but with improvements in speed measurement devices, it has now changed to "line control." This means two adjacent monitoring points are set up on the same road section, using license plate recognition technology to automatically compare vehicle plates. Based on the road distance and the vehicle's passing time, the average speed is calculated, which serves as the standard for determining speeding. According to relevant regulations: 1. Speeding below 10%: A warning is issued during the annual inspection, with no penalty points or fines. 2. Speeding between 10% and 20%: 3 penalty points and a fine of 100 yuan. 3. Speeding between 20% and 50%: 6 penalty points and a fine of 200 yuan. 4. Speeding over 50%: 12 penalty points, a fine of 200–2000 yuan, temporary license suspension, and mandatory training.
